A REASONABLE WAY TO PROCEED

On the Saturday of LASC, March 10, 2018, current and former students and colleagues celebrated Jim McCloskey‘s 30th anniversary at UCSC by presenting him with a collection of essays inspired by his influence. Spearheaded by Jason Merchant, Line Mikkelsen, Deniz Rudin, and Kelsey Sasaki, the papers span a wide range of languages such as Irish, Chamorro, German, and Santiago Laxopa Zapotec, as well as a wide range of topics covering syntax, ellipsis, the syntax/semantics interface, the syntax/prosody interface, and Old Irish literature. The collection also includes a dedication by Cathal Goan. Congratulations Jim!
